New Danville Girl



Bob Dylan - New Danville Girl - Текст песни

I Wish I Could Remember That Movie Just A Little Bit Better,
All I Remember About It Was That It Starred Gregory Peck.
He Was Shot Down In The Back By A Hungry Kid Trying To Make A Name For Himself.
The Townspeople Wanted To Crush That Kid Down And String Him Up By The Neck.

Well The Sheriff Beat That Boy To A Bloody Pulp,
As The Dying Gunfighter Lay In The Sun And Gasped For His Last Breath.
'turn Him Loose, Let Him Go, Let Him Say He Outdrew Me Fair And Square.
I Want Him To Feel What It's Like To Every Moment Face His Death'.

Well I Keep Seeing This Stuff And It Just Comes A-rolling In,
And It Blows Right Through Me Like A Ball And Chain.
You Know I Can't Believe We've Lived So Long And Are Still So Far Apart.
Your Memory Keeps Callin' After Me Like A Rollin' Train.

I Can Still See The Day That You Came To Me On The Painted Desert
In Your Busted-down Ford And Your Platform Heels.
I Could Never Figure Out Why You Choose That Particular Place To Meet,
Ah, But You Were Right. It Was Perfect, As I Got In Behind The Wheel.

We Drove That Car All Night Until San Antone
And We Slept Near The Alamo, Fell Out Under The Stars.
Way Down In Mexico He Went Out To See A Doctor And You Never Came Back,
I Stayed There A While, Till The Whole Place It Started Feelin' Like Musk.

Well, I'm Driving This Car And The Sun Is Comin' Up Over The Rockies.
Somethin' About It Reminds Me Of You, Like When She Sings "baby, Let The Good
times Roll".
But I'm Too Over The Edge To Remember The Things We Used To Talk About Or Do,
And She's The One To Remind Me, She Knows This Car Would Go Out Of Control.

Danville Girl With Your Danville Curl,
Teeth Like Pearls, Shining Like The Moon Above.
Danville Girl Take Me All Around The World.
Danville Girl, You're My Honey Love.

Well. We Crossed The Panhandle And Then We Headed Out Towards Amarillo,
Rushin' Down Where Henry Porter Used To Live, He Owned The Record Line Outside
of Town,
We Could See Ruby In The Window, As We Came Rolling Up In A Trail Of Dust.
She Said 'henry's Not Here, He Took Off, But You All Can Come In And Stay A
while'.

Well She Told Us Times Were Tough But We Never Knew How Bad Off She Was.
You Know She Would Change The Subject Every Time Money Came Up.
You Know Her Eyes Were Filled With So Much Sadness, She Was So Disillusioned
with Everything,
She Said 'even The Swap Meets Around Here Are Getting Pretty Corrupt'.

'how Far Are You All Going?' Ruby Asked Us With A Sigh.
'we're Going All The Way 'till The Wheels Fall Off And Burn.
Till The Sun Peels The Paint And The Seat Covers Fade And The Water Moccasin
dies'.
Ruby Just Smiled And Said 'ah, You Know, Some Babies Never Learn'.

I Keep Trying To Remember That Movie Though, And It Does Keep Comin' Back,
But I Can't Remember What Part I Played Or Who I Was Supposed To Be.
All I Can Remember About It Is It's Starring Gregory Peck And He Was In It,
And Everything He Did In It Reminded Me Of Me. Yeah!

Danville Girl With Your Danville Curl,
Teeth Like Pearls, Shining Like The Moon Above.
Danville Girl Take Me All Around The World.
Danville Girl, You're My Honey Love.

Well, They Were Looking For Somebody With A Pompadour.
I Was Crossing The Street When They Opened Fire.
I Didn't Know Whether To Duck Or To Run So I Ran.
Sounded To Me Like I Was Bein' Chased By The Midnight Choir.

Well, You Saw My Picture In The Corpus Christi Tribune, Underneath It Said
'a Man With No Alibi'.
You Went Out On A Limb To Testify And You Said I Was With You. Ah, Yes You Did!
And I Watched You Break Down In Front Of The Judge And Cry.
It Was The Best Acting I Ever Saw You Do.

I've Always Been The Emotional Person But This Time It Was Asking Too Much.
If There's An Original Thought Out There, Oh, I Could Use It Right Now!
Yeah, I Feel Pretty Good, But You Know I Could Feel A Whole Lot Better, Oh Yes I
could,
If You Were Just Here By My Side To Show Me How.

Well, I'm Standing In Line In The Rain To See A Movie Starring Gregory Peck.
Oh Yes I Am, But It's Not The One That I Had In Mind.
He's Got A New One Out Now, You Know It Just Don't Look The Same,
But I'll See Him Anyway And I Stand In Line.

Danville Girl With Your Danville Curl,
Teeth Like Pearls, Shining Like The Moon Above.
Danville Girl Take Me All Around The World.
Danville Girl, You're My Honey Love.

You Know, It's Funny How People Just Want To Believe What's Convenient.
Nothing Happens On Purpose, It's An Accident If It Happens At All.
And Everything That's Happening To Us Seems Like It's Happening Without Our
consent,
But We're Busy Talking Back And Forth To Our Shadows On An Old Stone Wall.





Oh, You Got To Talk To Me Now Baby, Tell Me About The Man That You Used To Love,
And Tell Me About Your Dreams, Just Before The Time You Passed Out. Oh, Yeah!
Tell Me About The Time That Our Engine Broke Down And It Was The Worst Of Times,
Tell Me About All The Things That I Couldn't Do Nothin' About.

There Was A Movie I Seen One Time, I Think I Sat Through It Twice.
I Don't Remember Who I Was Or What Part I Played.
All I Remember About It Was It Was Starring Gregory Peck.
But That Was A Long Time Ago, And It Was Made In The Shade.

Danville Girl With Your Danville Curl,
Teeth Like Pearls, Shining Like The Moon Above.
Danville Girl Take Me All Around The World.
Danville Girl, You're My Honey Love.
